Description
Home Field is a poignant novel about tradition, family, love and football. When the high school football coach's wife commits suicide, his life is turned upside down.
The coach, Dean, must re-evaluate all of his relationships, including those with his team and his three children, as he struggles to come to terms with his loss. His eleven-year-old son Robbie is withdrawing at home, while his eight-year-old Bry is struggling to understand his mother's death. Meanwhile, their eighteen-year-old daughter Stephanie is torn between her new identity as a rebellious college student and her responsibility towards her brothers.
As Dean struggles to fix his fractured family and himself, he discovers that nothing will ever be the same again. This moving debut novel explores the power of forgiveness and the pull of the past in small-town America.
